Partnership agreement; effect on third parties and relationship to records effective on behalf of limited partnership.

A partnership agreement may specify that its amendment requires the approval of a person that is not a party to the agreement or the satisfaction of a condition. An amendment is ineffective if its adoption does not include the required approval or satisfy the specified condition. The obligations of a limited partnership and its partners to a person in the person’s capacity as a transferee or person dissociated as a partner are governed by the partnership agreement. Subject only to a court order issued under § 29-707.03(b)(2) to effectuate a charging order, an amendment to the partnership agreement made after a person becomes a transferee or is dissociated as a partner: Is effective with regard to any debt, obligation, or other liability of the limited partnership or its partners to the person in the person’s capacity as a transferee or person dissociated as a partner; and Is not effective to the extent the amendment imposes a new debt, obligation, or other liability on the transferee or person dissociated as a partner. If a record delivered by a limited partnership to the Mayor for filing becomes effective and contains a provision that would be ineffective under § 29-701.07(b) or (c)(2) if contained in the partnership agreement, the provision is ineffective in the record. Subject to subsection (c) of this section, if a record delivered by a limited partnership to the Mayor for filing becomes effective and conflicts with a provision of the partnership agreement: The agreement prevails as to partners, persons dissociated as partners, and transferees; and The record prevails as to other persons to the extent they reasonably rely on the record. Application of Law 19-210: Section 7 of D.C. Law 19-210 provided that the act shall apply as of January 1, 2012. Section 2(g)(2)(F) of D.C. Law 19-210 redesignated former § 20-701.09 as § 29-701.11.
